Growing Conditions
Heat and wildfires tested us, but the result was another solid vintage. The main issue for vintners was a cool and wet spring that pushed bud break back two weeks. We opened our canopies early to allow more sunlight and promote growth. Then early summer was very warm and this accelerated the season and pushed ripening back on track. The weather in Walla Walla was ideal during harvest, with our usual long warm days and wonderfully cool evenings.
